You will be making a comic strip on animals at risk of extinction. Working alone, pick one of the following animals to research and learn about: Amur leopard,African elephants, black rhinos, vaquitas, African wild dogs , giant panda, chimpanzees, red pandas, Grevy's zebras. You may also choose a different animal to research as long as the animal is endangered. Please clear your animal choice with your teacher.
After you have selected your topic, use reliable websites to find answers to the following questions Hint- a great website is theWorld Wildlife Fund:
1. Where does this animal live (country and habitat)?
2. How many of these are still in existence?
3. What are the threats to this creature's existence? (For example, is loss of habitat due to human encroachment a cause of its declining numbers? Does pollution hurt this creature? Is the creature being hunted to extinction?)
4. Develop two more questions regarding your animal, and find answers to them.
IMPORTANT--WRITE YOUR ANSWERS ON A GOOGLE DOCUMENT AND SHARE THEM WITH MRS. WELLBORN
